Article:Success
A combination of passion, dedication, and self-satisfaction
This article is going to deal with – what is success; Is success a comparative study; Who is actually a successful person?? Is success mere a personal satisfaction! What role does time management play to become a successful person? What are the secrets of success? Is success really time bound?
Success is a feeling of happiness and encouragement, to reach another level. The best is never defined …and excellence is a journey …what I think about success is –‘Best’ is not relative or comparative quantity, ’Best’ is an effort which one gives to reach his / her goal, ambitions, which should be aligned with the community targets. ‘Best’ is a measure of effort i.e. The degree of effort. And remember, that effort is regardless the circumstances. And the efforts are powered by realistic hopes and strong believes, which calls the need for passion, confidence in your belief and hence success is achieved. Practically, success is the degree of confidence in yourself and your belief.
Success always requires a personal definition for it - what is success according to you a) in limited time and b) in long run. It is a competition of you with yourself, which involves –pushing the limits which will ultimately result in pushing the results. Also the law of nature says - you can either push down or you can push up ! but the graph cannot remain parallel to x axis for the life circumstances being a dynamic quantity. This exercise gives the real happiness, the real pleasure: Think –what is difficult for you to achieve and then write it down the possible steps that could be taken to achieve that hypothetical and hence write days / months required to achieve that; realize that you are on the verge of achieving all your targets as you've achieved 75% of them, by writing them.
Now, lemme get somewhat more philosophical. Why there are so many people on earth? Answer is –they are to assist you to achieve that hypothetical. You can learn from them i.e. Learn from their input and not from their output (results) nor from their targets as they may be aligned to their personal goals. Some tricks, habits, can be adopted from others, provided you are already motivated towards your goals. Remember that your best friend is your brain itself which will continue assisting you in the real best way, during success and also in seemingly failure circumstances.
A fact that must be kept in mind that – more you achieve – the more modest you should become as you are achieving or have achieved that hypothetical because the nature has faith in you as you that are going to give it back ! Some day in future and Something better to the nature (society).
